In this course, we will examine
several aspects of the global capital markets, including private and
public financial intermediaries, domestic and global security markets,
organized exchanges for stock and bond securities trading, and
capitalization structure. We will also learn the mechanics of the
buy-side/sell-side, the role of investment bankers and brokers, the
underwriting process, various types of financial securities and
derivatives, and other topics that are timely to today’s global
markets.
The objective of this course is to provide students with a working knowledge
of global capital markets. The ultimate goal is to obtain a level of knowledge
of the capital markets that allows the confidence to perform an investor
relations job with a new level of effectiveness and efficiency. |
